So if I'm understanding it correctly, once we get root and install the recovery tool, we'll never have to go through the loop process again to get into recovery. I feel like that's a major newb question but just wanted to make sure.

If that's the case, can somebody list or point me to the procedure to do the wireless N hack using the recovery tool?

Edit: Just read in the thread below how some users might be having problems with wireless teather after doing the "N" hack. If this is the case, perhaps it's best to skip it altogether.

I'm not a pro at this stuff yet but as far as I can tell once you flash the new recovery you do not need to loop it anymore. Just go into partitions and mount the drive and you are set. I did the wireless n that way and removed ton of bloatware.

Btw with the tether I found that shutting off wifi and then starting tether seems to work
